New Chapter :D

Annabeth

Percy carrying me out of the gym today, easily the dorkiest thing he had ever done. "So seaweed brain, how do you plan on keeping me from school tomorrow?" I asked innocently with him still carrying me in his arms.

"My love do you know what day it is today?" He asked.

"Yea it's the 24th of August, so?' I asked still confused.

"But what is the day of the week?" He asked grinning like crazy.

"It's Friday but what… Oh" realization dawning on me "Percy Jackson you mad genius."

"Hey you know, I try, and it's nice to confuse you once in a while," He said with a smirk.

"I love you" I said quietly

"What was that?" He asked. Then I leaned in kissed him on the cheek and whispered it again in his ear, making him blush like crazy.

Percy finally set me down on the hood of the Prius, and I noticed it was still riddled with horseshoe shaped dents. "Percy what happened to the car?"

He responded with one word, and that word had made me laugh ever since we rescued him "Blackjack." He whispered. I just started laughing, and so did Percy. It was amazing, just laughing with him made butterflies flutter.

"Percy never leave me alone, I don't think that I could handle it ever. Like at night from now on I will be sleeping your bed, I am never leaving your side I just… I can't…" I stammered, I know I sounded like a super attached person, but I couldn't help it. I just couldn't put the right words together, and it was infuriating. "I know I sound like a creep right now, but I need you Percy, more than you could know." Then he silenced me with a kiss that literally took my breath away

"Annabeth, please shut up. You know I would never leave you alone ever again, not after I let us…" his voice faltered.

"Oh no you don't Mr. Jackson!" I exclaimed "You are not blaming that on yourself, you can blame it on me, but you definitely should not blame yourself." This time it was my turn to kiss him.

"Aw come on not on the car too!" I heard a voice from behind Percy. I opened my eyes to see Paul with an amused look on his face.

"Sorry?" Percy said in a not so apologetic tone

"Yea, yea get in the car guys," He sounded genuinely annoyed, but he winked at me before I got in the car and then I knew we had both been tricked. Percy leaned against the window, and after I gave him a confused look, he touched his chest.

Taking the opportunity I gladly nestled my head up against his chest, and he wrapped his hands around my stomach. We just settled there as Paul started driving. I just sat there listening to Percy's heartbeat. It brought back so many memories.

Suddenly I felt like the world was closing in, and then we were back in the pit, sitting on that cliff ledge that we were climbing down following the empousa, but this time something else happened. A rock slide started spilling rocks all over us. Percy the brave stupid idiot covered the blow with his body, and … Everything was dark, I couldn't see anything. All was silent, and I was wondering if I was dead then I heard something. A soft voice, it sounded sad, but it was calling me, persistently, towards a small white dot and the more I followed the voice the bigger the dot became. I stared at it, and it grew and grew. Suddenly I understood what the voice was saying. Just four words.

"Annabeth I love you" over and over again. Eventually the light enveloped my vision and I was pulled into the present. I looked around and saw that I was sitting on grass, my head in Percy's lap and in an instant I felt horrible.

"Percy I am so sorry." He immediately kissed me, and I forgot about all my problems.

"You have nothing to be sorry about, I just have one request, you tell me what you saw." He said.

Percy

"Tell me what you saw," it seemed like such a simple request but when Annabeth buried her face in my shirt I knew I made a mistake. "Gods, Annabeth I am so sorry, please don't tell me anything. I am so sorry, forgive me." She smiled sadly at me and kissed me, and I guess that meant I was forgiven.

"Percy, I do want to tell you what I saw, just not here. Let's get back to the apartment first." She said, and I saw something in her eyes that I was not used to, fear.

"Yea let's get back." With that we clambered back into the car. Paul looked at us with concern.

"Is everything all right?" Paul asked, his voice filled with concern.

"Yea, everything is great now." She said smiling, but it was weak.

The rest of the car ride was uneventful, but the minute we stepped in the apartment Annabeth pulled my hand and led me into my room. There she turned and hugged me so tight I was afraid to breathe, I didn't want to do anything that might make Annabeth go further away from me. "You know I will always be there for you."

"That's what I am scared of." She admitted, pulling back from the hug.

"Annabeth what do you mean?" I was confused

"In my blackout we were sitting on top of that ledge taking a break when we were climbing down the cliff to that monster birthing pit place. This time there was a rock slide though and the rocks were going to crush us so you leapt over me and shielded me. Then everything was dark, and I was so scared. And the thing that brought me out of the dark towards the light, that was your voice, just you saying 'Annabeth I love you'. And I have been thinking about how you called me your light, and I realized something. You are what brings me towards light. You are my guide, without you I am lost and with you I know what to do. Percy you are my light house on a foggy day when I can't see my hand, I can still see you, radiant as always showing me where to go. Percy I need you to swear to me that you will never leave me, I don't care if you are saving my life, if we are both about to die and you could save me please don't. I don't want to be lost for the rest of my life."

"Annabeth," My voice cracked "You can't seriously expect me promise you that."

"Please Percy I need you to. I can't live without you. If you died, I would probably go insane and kill myself anyways." She said pleading me, giving me her best puppy dog eyes.

"Fine," Then I thought of something, "I will do it on one condition,"

"Anything seaweed brain," She said

"Make the promise with me, I can't live without you either."

"Fine we will do it together."

"I Percy Jackson swear upon the river Styx that if we are both dying, and I am given the opportunity to save Annabeth Chase by sacrificing my own being I will not take it." I said, my voice shaking at the end, and thunder rumbled outside.

"Thank you Percy, You have no idea how much this means to me." She said, a playful smile on her face.

"I think I do because now it's your turn." I said. She stared at me in disbelief.

"Percy please," She begged, but I would not back down

"Annabeth," My voice stern "You have to."

She must have realized that I was not going to back down no matter what and said the oath. Then she looked up at me tears streaming down her face, and we kissed. After a couple of minutes or so, we pulled back and I looked at her, "You should go wash up, we have a dinner reservation for 7:30."

She looked at me and smiled, and we kissed some more. She was just about to leave my room when the doorbell rang. My mom went to open it and called us. It was Brittany, and she looked mad.

"Sup Britt, what can we do for you?" I asked.

"I actually need to talk to the both of you about something, is there somewhere?" she looked at me hopingly.

"Yea let's go to my room. Mom is that ok?" I asked.

"Yea sure go ahead." She said smiling.

"Thanks mom," and with that we went to my room.

Brittany noticed Annabeth's eyes were puffy from all of the crying from before, and looked shocked, horrified even. "Alexia already has you two fighting?" She sounded sad.

Annabeth and I both started laughing "Oh Gods no something a lot more serious came up, but don't worry Percy and I were not fighting at all." Annabeth said.

"Good, because…" A sudden thought occurred to me and I just blurted it out. Stupid ADHD.

"Wait, why did you think Alexia would try to break us up?" I asked, Annabeth blushed and reached for my hand.

"It's because she loves you." Annabeth said quietly

"That's not possible," I said, "I told her who knows how many times that I had a girlfriend that I was in love with."

"Percy its ok, I'm not mad, I know that there was nothing going on with you two." Annabeth seemed calm enough but I couldn't handle it.

"No, it's not okay. I am not going allow her to think that we have a future, or that it's okay for her to try and break us up." I was angry, who did she think she was.

I have been in love with Annabeth for 5 years, and along comes this idiotic redhead who thinks she can ruin everything. "We need to get back at her." When I saw Annabeth's grin I knew she came up with something.

"Thanks for everything Brittany, but I'd rather plan this plan with Annabeth alone, this way it will be more surprising for you too." I said to Brittany. "For now just go with anything Alexia asks you to do."

She looked at the mischief in both of our eyes, and said "Well okay then, see you guys on Monday." Then she left.

"So how do you want to do it?" She asked. "I have a ton of ideas, but they all seem a bit too mean."

"You have your Yankees cap right?" I asked

"Of course", and I smiled as the perfect plan formulated in my head. It was nice to be the one to come up with the plans for once.

"Let's discus this later, for now you have a date to get ready for." I said.

Hope you guys liked it, and if so, follow favorite and review. Also, I'll try my best but since I have school I might not be able to get a chapter up every day, but we'll see. :D
